I was about to say the same thing, or the residual magnetism was lost and it’s not building up enough to charge the capacitor in which case would need to be “jump started” to get the magnetism back and make it “excited”… I’ve done this twice with both my grandfathers generator’s that was fully submerged during the 2016 flood

Mine was weak running the freezer and freezer compartment of the refrigerator. Items starting thawing out but it was still pretty cool. However the lower refrigerator compartment was not cooling.

The generator was running a little rough. I am going to change out the spark plug but sounds like the problem may lie with residual magnetism? What is involved in “jump started” to get the magnetism back and make it “excited"?
